Vintage International 18-8 Stainless Teapot - Art Deco Octagonal Hotelware

This little stainless teapot has old hotel silver charm packed into an octagonal Art Deco silhouette. Marked International 18-8, Japan on the base, it was made for restaurant and hotel service, the kind of piece that held its shape through decades of daily pours. Clean angular panels on the body, a hinged octagonal lid with a faceted thumb rest, and a squared handle that echoes the geometric lines throughout. The spout has a crisp, upswept curve. Polished stainless holds a bright shine with minimal upkeep, no tarnish worries like true silver plate. Dimensions: approximately 4 inches tall, 5.5 inches from handle to spout tip. Condition: excellent vintage condition, minor light surface scratches consistent with age and use, no dents or damage. Hinge and lid function smoothly. A great single serve teapot or coffee pot for a mid-century tablescape, a diner-style kitchen, or anyone building a hotel silver collection. Every piece has a past. Find yours. — Sarah / The Storied House Co.
